Faith Groups

One of the best ways to meet other people and to grow in your faith is to join a faith group! These small groups offer an opportunity to reflect on Scripture and to explore how faith plays a part in your own life while fostering deeper relationships with a more intimate community of fellow students. This is one of the best ways to get involved at the CSC, connect with others and grow in your faith formation.

Join a Core Community

Core Communities are small, student-led, faith-sharing groups of five to eight students that meet for one hour each week to discuss their lives and faith through the lens of the Gospel. This is one of the pinnacle experiences of students at the CSC, and a great way to make friends and grow and share in faith and community.

It’s never too late to join!

Gratia Plena is open to all undergrad women at WashU who are interested in pursuing their faith, growth, and friendship. GP meets once a week, discussing various topics related to faith and femininity.

Upper Room Program

Engage your faith in a deeply meaningful way. Live a life with intentionality and authenticity. Share your faith with hospitality and empathy. Come to the Upper Room.

In the Upper Room, we gather together, like the disciples at Pentecost, with intention, to take a deep dive into our faith, and then share our lives with others. This semester long commitment includes a retreat, one hour bi-weekly small group session, and one hour bi-weekly mentorship meeting with campus ministry staff.

Upper Room sign ups occur at the end of the academic year for the following year. For more information, contact a campus minister.

The 2024 cohort has already begun, but stay tuned for the info session in Spring 2025.
